(Eindhoven, August 25, 2008). From today onwards anyone can have access to the actual state and yield of potatoes in a large part of Europe. Potato growth information is calculated from satellite based recordings by Basfood from Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Interested parties choose themselves from which area they wish to acquire the information by selecting parcels of 25×25km from a map of Europe. The purchase price is € 500 per parcel, for which the buyer gets weekly the actual yield in kg per hectare from July until the end of October. This information is particularly interesting for trading parties and government services.
